How BYU, Utah and USU's opponents fared in week four

The Cowboys offense ran wild over the Falcons in Colorado Springs. Quarterback Brett Smith passed for 373 yards and four touchdowns and rushed for 138 yards and another touchdown.

Wyoming head coach Dave Christensen was right to be proud of his kids.

“I want to say that we have one unbelievable football team. And I love these kids...I have a team full of guys that give so much in all areas of their lives," Christensen told the Casper Star-Tribune. "And I want to recognize that."

The Cowboys look like a top-tier team within the Mountain West Conference.

Interesting article on CBSsports that gives you the current bowl predictions and
I am guessing they didnt like how both Utah and BYU played since they are not
showing either team in their list. I can post the link but it is easy to find
under cbssports collegefootball bowls prediction tabs.

To look at the opponents win/loss record will become less meaningful for Utah
and Utah State as conference begins. Consider this; When Oregon plays Stanford
a currently ranked number 2 team plays a currently ranked number 5 team yet one
has to lose. So for teams in conferences their opponents playing each other
will lead to a 50% win record. Kinda distorts the analysis of strength of
schedule!

bigirish, UR means unranked. Should've clarified that, my fault. The first
one is AP ranking, the second Coaches' Poll ranking, and the third the
Sagarin rating. Apparently a few people found it helpful, sorry I didn't
make it clear for you.

So it looks like the Anae offense is going to still try to perfect something
that seems rather static and uncreative. Can that get better just by execution?
That was my beef with him before he left - he seemed to push the same scheme
after other teams had figured it out, without adding some surprise value to it.
It seems he has sacrificed a lot of wrinkles to the Go Fast Go Hard, which
hasn't really made a lot of difference for other defenses. He said he was
going to keep this offense simple - and simple it is, too simple, and our
opponents get it. Two non productive runs into the stacked up middle, and then
a 30/70 chance of a pass working. I know I'm generalizing, but against a
good defense like Utah, and without a consistent offense, we got stopped. Sure,
a few plays or mistakes could have made the difference. We were better in
stats. Did our offense lose confidence in the blue zone? I hope the coaches
work on that a lot this week - and give Ammon Olson a chance to show his
passing. We should use both those guys rather than loyally sticking to a qb who
might not be as two dimensional as we thought.
